Just after some info as to why my RC units wifi is now no longer working. It was working the first time i started it. I was able to hook it to my phone and AC.
Had the initial update to do and through this the RC update failed and from then on the RC wifi has not worked at all. I cannot turn the wifi on by holding the pause flight, Fn, Customisable buttons at the same time for 3 seconds. I have tried to reset the wifi but that hasn't helped at all.


I have no idea what is wrong with it. Someone plese help

Pressing those three is to link it to spark.(after pressing batt for 3 secs for  1beep.)

I have tried that. I'm fairly certain that the RC wifi is not turning on whatever I do though. Has anyone got a fix to get the wifi enabled?

Is rc showing green. ?Until then forget rc wifi.

Nope. I can't get it to stop flashing red. My understanding is that holding the 3 buttons down for 3 seconds will activate the wifi. When I hold those buttons down I get nothing till around 6 seconds where I get 1 solitary beep, and no change to the light.

Well no green light no rc wifi.
1Turn on spark
2 press batt 3 secs 1 beep.
3 Press all three buttons
Till rc beeps a lot.
4 wait for green
5 must be less than 6 inches apart.

Well no green light no rc wifi.
1Turn on spark
2 press batt 3 secs 1 beep.

Again nothing happens when I press the three buttons. Could something have happened when I was updating it?

Is there a way to reset the controller to factory settings?

Long press on rc resetsto factory.
Others have found 9 sec press on  spark button. Switch off then on. Then 3 sec on spark, one beep, then it works.

Okay that doesn't do anything. Is there a way to update the RC without wifi?

Well I'm starting to think it's a hardware issue as the RC wifi does not want to turn on no matter what I do. Is there anything else it could be?

Sir, if the long press of the RC doesn't work, I would recommend you send it back for futher check. Please provide us the case number so that we can check this case easier. Thanks for your support.

I'm currently having the same problem. I was in the process of updating firmware of RC but it failed. After that I could no longer see the wifi of RC and led just kept blinking red. Is there a solution to this?

i had the same problem yesterday after installing the latest update.

I ended up sending it back to DJI and they gave me a new controller. Maybe worthwhile getting in touch with them

There were no diy solutions possible?  And did you send only the controller?

Thank you. I already sent an email however, I've learned that it takes about 2 months for items to return back here in the Phil. and I would like to ask if its possible to only send the RC? Thanks

Hi, thanks for the reply, if there will no issues with the aircraft then you can send the RC only for repair and evaluation. I would recommend checking the aircraft by connecting your phone via wi-fi so that you can test the performance of the aircraft.

Hello, the aircraft works fine with phone. Could I use your statement as reference so that I can send my RC only? Thanks

Hi, thanks for your feedback, you can send the RC only as long as the aircraft is performing well, however, I strongly advise sending an email first to the address that I mentioned on post #18 for you to have the recommendations in regards to your concern. Thank you.

A bit late to the party, but did the send you a controller for free? I am having this same problem right now...

From memory I think I sent it back to them. Then they sent me a replacement within a few weeks. Didn't pay for the controller and I'm fairly certain I didn't have to pay for any postage either.
